Be a student and get MS software for free (or strongly reduced). I got my Win7 for 5€ via MSDNAA (or whatever the abbreviation was)

That's just one of the fantastic things of being a student

I got MS Office 2010 for $10 through my job, as part of the Microsoft HUP (Home Use Program). Not quite sure, but I'm assuming that if I leave my job, they deactivate my key. (Too lazy to go look that up right now, as I'm not leaving my job anytime soon anyway.)

I get just about any software I want for the PC for free thx to my uncle.
I forget what he does but using his login I can DL from the web full and verified copies (with keys) of just about any software product you could name. Or at least the ones that his company uses... which is most of them.
I remember the day after Windows 7 launched I put Ultimate 64x on 5 different computers for free, lol.

Find me a working crack of both CS5 and Sony Vegas then I will validate your argument =P (No really, before I had access that I do now I remember searching that stuff, or the versions that were available at the time, and having zero luck)
IIRCC, alot of the Sony products are tough to get working cracks for.
Tho to be honest, I havent needed to search in quite a while, for all I know its been taken care of by now.

I honestly wasnt that big of a K-On fan, but I fucking love Ritsu.
I might make a matching sig later today. I wanted to keep either a cool gif or something current but I might just make a Ritsu one anyway, cuz she rocks, obviously.

Also, I am curious, can you guys do this?
First, start with an open hand-

(click to show/hide)

Then, bend your pinky down while not moving any of your other still outstretched fingers.

(click to show/hide)

It seems really basic but I have found that alot of people arent able to do it. Most people will have to involuntarily bend their other fingers at the same time.

After 5 years of playing piano that's easy!

Yea, I wasnt able to do it when I was young but after years of playing guitar its easy. It seems that the majority of people who are able to do that have played some sort of instrument that requires finger work.

I can do that easily on my left hand but can't at all with my right hand. I'm right handed btw. Strange. O.o

Like I said before. Let me know when you get a working crack for the new versions of CS5, Premier and Vegas.

Just ''woke'' up. Then paid atention to that talk of bending fingers:

(click to show/hide)

Just one question. What is so hard in this?
I've been able to do this for years, I've never relly played any insturments.
So, let me just say. It is nothing special.

....and I'm still wondering about that ''open hand'', like, EVERYONE can do it... I think...
(took those pics in a min...)

Obviously everyone can open their hand, that wasnt the the issue, it was only the starting point.
As far as you folding the other fingers, those are generally easy, its the pinky that alot of people seem to have trouble with.
This is not some wierd rare ass thing that I dont expect people to be able to do, its just that enuf people cant that it piqued my curiosity.

I have trouble with midle-finger... Pinky is one of the most easiest, actualy, just as easy as forefinger...
Well, we could say that I've ''absolute'' controlover my body

If I want my hand to stop, it will stop.
Also, this is kind of funny:

(click to show/hide)

also, it is actualy hard for me to point straight, this is what happens when I do so without thinking at the same time:

(click to show/hide)

I've heard a question ''you mean to the left?''

oh, and btw. I can do all these with my right hand also.

Quoting for the obvious.
But oh well.
Went on a torrent page, found an apperently working copy of Adobe Creative Suite CS5 Master Collection.
Found Sony Vegas Pro 10 which apperently works (but only with 32bit crack).
And the CS5 Master Collection already has Premiere in it.
What else?

Soryon · « **Reply #21716 on:** January 15, 2011, 08:31:52 PM »

Like I said, working. I have seen plenty of torrents that claim to be full cracked versions but in the end were either only a demo or not working at all.
Have you actually tried to install and use the torrents you mention?
That was the situation a bit over a year ago. I dont bother with it now cuz I can get full, legitimate and verified copies any time I want with a few clicks of the mouse.

1000mAh · « **Reply #21717 on:** January 15, 2011, 09:00:34 PM »

I would relly love to be able to say ''I'll execute you'' and then relly do it... That would be so cool...

Sylian · « **Reply #21718 on:** January 15, 2011, 09:01:48 PM »

Didn't try of course, why should I? I don't need that stuff.
And oh well, ~5-10 usercomments(I only read like the first 10-20) on torrents approved it for working and even gave some tipps on installing or changing some stuff (for example the host to disable Adobe from updating, etc)..

BrownMasterV · « **Reply #21719 on:** January 15, 2011, 09:10:58 PM »

I really don't want to go to work today. We're going to be buys as shit and I'm nowhere near trained enough to handle it. We're probably going to make a guy wait 20 minutes for his meal again
